Wheel Hop Problems!

Thats an understatment. My 305 carb gets terrible wheel hop and i need a cheap fix. Ofcourse the old original worn out suspension adds to the problem but i do not have the money for all of that.


Any cheap ideas? thanks

Re: Wheel Hop Problems!

put some kyb gas a just, some tubular lower control arms from Founders. 59.00 dollars for the pair. Then try it. If still too much hop then order the lower control arm relocation brackets and you should be fine

cars and cheap dont belong in the same sentence by the way!

Re: Wheel Hop Problems!

^^^ second that. A cheap fix is a waist of money. PLUS you fid yourself going back and doing it TWICE. And the way these cars are built, I refuse to do it TWICE!
